Dine at Forte dei Marmi This Weekend
Forte dei Marmi is one of the latest restaurant openings on Miami Beach’s Ocean Drive. The people behind the eatery call the cuisine and the ambiance “sophisticated simplicity”, which sound intriguing. Equally as intriguing, however, is the story behind its chef Antonio Melino.
Born in Argentina, Melino was raised in an Italian culture and has been working in the restaurant business for over forty years. Forte dei Marmi is the latest project he’s been involved in, and he’s also been an integral part of launching various concepts around the world, including Italy’s Quattro Passi which received the two-Michelin-star. The Michelin stars are given by Michelin Guides, a series of French guidebooks known for their strong influence in determining the success of a restaurant. Two stars is considered “excellent cooking”.
In case you’re wondering where the name of the restaurant comes from, Forte dei Marmi is named after a seaside town in Italy located north of Tuscany. The town is known for its relaxed and always fresh food.
Besides the restaurant, there is also the Forte dei Marmi Arts Club located on the second floor. Guests will find a bar and large entertainment space intended for art viewings and other events focused on culture.
Forte dei Marmi’s address is 150 Ocean Drive.
